The answer to that last one is easy: When the First Lady comes to Colorado and eats at a restaurant owned by a chef who not only touted healthy food for kids as a Top Chef contestant, but also was just named a James Beard semi-finalist, that's definitely our business. Look for Kelly Liken's take on cooking for the First Lady -- and the recipe for the braised short ribs she served Michelle Obama at Restaurant Kelly Liken -- later this morning.
In the meantime, feast on the meaty comments posted after Laura Shunk's story, including this from Tony:
Well, notwithstanding the fact that if you ever shudder to semi-lucidity to find yourself with your face hanging out, slack-jawed and drooling and listening to Rush Limbaugh that it is time to consider the probability that you have mentally given up, I do agree that this is not the page to devote ink to the fat, fish white and flatulent one. I probably would have made a big deal of getting exercise on the slopes, then eating at a place that is actively doing good things for the school and all that, how she and her daughters sat down to a big bowl of nuts and twigs -- then, as a parting shot, say something like "No matter what Rush Limbaugh thinks!"
Definitely no matter what Rush Limbaugh thinks....
